Applications of titania and zirconia hollow fibers in sorptive microextraction of N,N-dimethylacetamide from water sample Original Research Article

The convenient fabrications of titania and zirconia hollow fiber with three-dimensional porous structure using polypropylene hollow fibers as templates were developed. And an analytical method based on enrichment and extraction of analytes in the water sample, hollow fiber sorptive microextraction in combined with gas chromatography has been developed for the rapid analysis of N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) in the environmental samples. The results showed that zirconia hollow fiber gave higher extraction performance of DMA than that of titania hollow fiber. The method validations, including linearity, limit of detection, limit of qualification, precision, and repeatability were investigated. Linearity for six-point calibration curve was excellent with zirconia hollow fiber having r2 value greater than 0.9993 at the linearity range of 0.001–1.0 mg mL−1. In addition, it seems that hollow fiber sorptive extraction is a promising technique for the enrichment and purification of analytes extracted directly from liquid samples without any other pretreatment.
